Fifa president Sepp Blatter has revealed that Gareth Bale could be prevented from playing for Tottenham for the duration of the Olympics.

The Wales international was ruled out of Stuart Pearce’s Team GB squad due to injury, but featured and scored in Spurs’ 1-1 friendly with LA Galaxy early on Wednesday morning – just two days before the men’s Olympic football is due to get underway.

Now Blatter has suggested that, should the FA or British Olympic Association launch a complaint to football’s world governing body, the 23-year-old may be banned from featuring for his club side until August 12.
